This was an interesting little story. I wasn’t really expecting the ending but I liked it. The artwork was beautiful and striking with the bright reds against the black and white.

Amazing illustrations, but definitely not enough of an actual story here. All the info actually given to readers is bizarre and vague AF.

VERY cool art style and very cool general vibes, I love me some vaguely erotic gay violence
Also along with the art style it did some funky things with panels and structure which I also really liked
The book kept building up to a twist that did not entirely make sense (it was genuinely just very unclear what the author was going for), but I did read this very frantically before gifting it so maybe I would have understood if I had taken some more time to reread
